[Read by George Newbern]
The Kennedys have captured the public's imagination for more than fifty years. Now colleague and friend of JFK Jr. Matt Berman offers a unique look at John's life as both a professional and regular guy. If George magazine was about ''not just politics as usual,'' a day at the office with John F. Kennedy Jr. was not just business as usual. John handpicked creative director Matt Berman to bring his vision for a new political magazine to life. Through marathon nights leading up to George's launch; extraordinary meetings with such celebrities as Barbra Streisand, Robert De Niro, and Demi Moore; and jokes at each other's expense, Matt developed a wonderfully collaborative and fun-loving relationship with America's favorite son. They were an unlikely team: the poised, charismatic scion of a beloved political family and the shy, self-deprecating artistic kid. Yet they became close friends and confidants. In this warm, funny, and intimate book, Matt remembers his brilliant friend and colleague - John’s approach to work, life, and fame, and most of all, his ease and grace, which charmed those around him. More than any book before it, ''JFK Jr., George, & Me'' reveals the friendly, witty, down-to-earth guy the paparazzi could never capture. Matt opens the doors of John's messy office to share previously untold stories, personal notes, and never-before-seen photos from the trenches of a start-up magazine that was the brainchild of a superstar. John helped Matt navigate a world filled with celebrities, artists, beauty, style, competition, and stunningly tender egos. In turn, Matt shares the invaluable lessons about business and life that he learned from John. What emerges is a portrait of JFK Jr. as a true friend and mentor.

Matt Berman wrote this book from his heart and it shows. A wonderful book of memories for all of us to share. Having lost many people in my own life (most were like John & Carolyn -- way too young)!!! I laughed through the book and cried at the end. After reading the book, I felt as if I had known John and grieved at the end for the loss of 3 wonderful, intelligent and charismatic people, gone way before their time. You did a great job Matt

Gefällt mir nicht

Ich weiss nicht genau, was mir an diesem Buch nicht passt. Ich habe die Seiten nach 20 nur oberflächlich gelesen. Es interessierte mich nicht. Ich habe noch ein anderes Buch über JFK Junior, das mir sehr gut gefällt, aber dieses hier nervt mich. Das ist keine hilfreiche Rezension, aber es ist meine Meinung.

Beautifully written, touching tribute
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 27, 2023Verified Purchase
This is a beautifully written tribute to the relationship and history between the author and JFK Jr. I've read most of the books written about JFK Jr and this is by far one of the most touching and authentic histories I've read. Clearly the author had genuine affection for Kennedy and it comes through in his writing. The author himself makes for a very interesting character, which is a big deal when the other main character is one of the most famous men to have lived in the modern age. Great details about the beginnings of George Magazine and interesting anecdotes about the celebrities who posed for the famous covers. Kennedy is depicted in an honest and positive light, great stories inside these pages. GEORGE was truly a moment in time and this author captured it so well. Definitely one of my favorite bio's on JFK Jr that I've read.
